You’re probably right, I didn’t realize that it came from Canada until I read more comments in this thread. I just assumed it was made here in the US when I saw the “nutritional facts” label on the back (they don’t do that in France). If you ever get a chance to taste the real thing, try it! Absolutely delicious with steak!
That's just wrong, food products are labelled according to european regulation number 1169/2011.
Moreover, you often find nutri-score labels on the front face: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nutri-Score
I don't think that's what was meant. US nutrition facts are laid out in an exact format, down to fonts and allowable variations for tall and wide packages, they're instantly recognizable. I suspect this is true in EU countries as well.
Import products are allowed to have a sticker with the information on it, and either the official style isn't required or no one cares. Point being you can tell an imported product which wasn't pre-packaged for the US market, because it won't have what we call the nutrition facts label.
I was referring to the overall [0]format that the USA uses to display the information. Of course, every country has their own version of this. The format I saw on the jar here led me to believe that it was not imported. Nutriscore is pretty new for France.
I've never had the French stuff to compare its quality, however.
